[[User:CBM-c-|c]], 2015.05.23: You can also use [[VS:Concat]] to convert numbers to strings, but it uses exclusively a dot "." as symbol for the decimal marker, because it outputs the number as seen from inside VS, I suppose. See further comments on the page [[VS:Concat]].
The parameter decPlace can be the following values: {| class="wikitable"
